The only "knucklehead kid(s)" in my home when I was growing up were myself and my siblings. In my home when my children were growing up, those "knucklehead kid(s)" were my own. Zero chance of some random "knucklehead kid" wandering in and finding my relatively "unsecured" gun.

I guess that's my point - "child control" is far more effective than "gun control", insofar as the safe storage of a defensive firearm in the home. My parents' results, my results, my siblings' results, all pretty much speak for themselves - a 100% success rate of zero "knucklehead kids" accessing firearms they were not supposed to access.

Isn't "knucklehead kid" kinda redundant anyway?
